OK, once again I have felt the strength of Joe's squad. Despite valiantly fightinhg 3 quarters, we completely crumbled in the last one. - 27, it's not even one of my best ones.

So Joe is leading 9 - 1 in our games, not to mention that he dropped on my only win.

Well ... I just can just hope it will not be like this FOREVER.

About your squad Revo, the bottom salary cap being 380 k, you should just target a 400 k roster, which might even be able to allow you to save your skin. That would be a double : not only do you get money and keep it, but staying in BBBL means you can't change conferences also. Because if you drop and then come back, it will be another random to decide where you land.

EDIT : you're just fine with your wages ... didn't realize.

to save my skin, i would require to end on the 5th spot. cause any PD game would be lost before it started for me. i'm unsure what's happening with Amenra and Boes, but i'm enjoying my salaries atm :D and despite having by far the lowest salary of the BBBL, i'm still sitting at 2-2. my biggest issue is that i'll most likely get swept by the other division. eitherway, i'm hoping to get one more win before the interconference games start. if i could manage to drag out a 2-5 record in the interconference games, then that would put me at 5 wins with 7 games left to play. if everything goes supremely well, i might consider to make some recrutements to win a potential play-down series, but as stated before: it's clear what my goals are. i'll admit that this conference is less strong than the other one, but the way things are looking now, i'd dare say that our conference will see 3 new teams each season untill one of ur teams drops out for economical issues... but i won't deny, if i got a shot at saving my skin, i will take it, but it has to be one that can pay off on the long term. saving my skin this season to then find myself relegated the season after that would be a horrible joke and i've made it clear that training my players will be my number 1 priority for a while ;)

That's very unclear.

It also depend on whether AmenRa could buy 2 monster players and get them in fihting shape before the play-downs or not.

Every season you see a team or another getting massive reinforcements before play-offs / downs, even if that means dropping them shortly after.

Well done Dragons.

I can't believe I felt for this - guess I'm the only one to blame.

Sorry...it had to be you.
But it was a television game.....so I did it for the money.

I have a real problem with injuries this season. (level 5 doctor)
An injurie of three weeks is too much. (my SF)
And today two more injuries.... (but I'm not complainig)

i made a mistake against Tienen. apparently i didn't put up the right enthusiasm. that is gonna hurt since i got no more home TV games...

Well, last night we saw some very close games in the "bloodbath" conference.
Stonestars nailed it just against Ventola Team, and with it also remained at the top of the conference together with the all mighty Vottem Cowboys, the favourite for the title. So that promises to be an important game the next match day, with Vottem Cowboys visiting the Stonestars, in which the winner will take first place.
Also a great win for TBS Wolves, who managed to defeat the strong Basket Mizu Arlon at home, one of the main challengers for Vottem Cowboys this season.
And the fact that Obira Dragons, which hadn't won a game until last night, secured a win against the leader at that time, Kelmis Spartans, shows that the bloodbath conference, is a conference where the strength of the teams is not far apart, which means theat every win has to be fought for, and nothins is for certain.
But, this is also something that can be said from the Big 8 conference, which is also a conference where any team can win from any other team. Because if AmenRa or Boes decides they absolutely want to win a certain game, then they are certainly able to do that, against any team of their conference.
And that's why i want to make a suggestion for the nick name of the big 8 conference, cfr. the "Deep Sea" conference. Why "Deep Sea" ? Well, first of all because the deep sea is an unknown territory where you can encounter some unknown and dangerous creatures, which symbolises the fact that also in the big 8 conference you are never sure if you'll win your next game or not, as its unknown how strong exactly your opponent is gonna be, and the strength of the teams is tied so close together which means that any team can win from any other team. And second of all, because the "Deep Sea" stands also for the color blue, and the big 8 is the blue conference. Just like a Bloodbath makes you think of the color red, and so references to the great 8 (red) conference. Which was by the way not the reason why it's called bloodbath, but it's a nice convenience, lol.
What do you guys think ?
The Deep Sea Conference (blue conference)
The Bloodbath Conference (red conference)

grtz,
Eagle.
